Design Retainer
Ongoing senior design and frontend capacity. Unlimited requests one at a time, 24-48 hour average turnaround, fixed $2,900/month. Best for teams that need steady progress without hiring full-time.
Services
Design and frontend services
Creative Croods provides design and frontend services for startups and growth teams, including UI/UX design retainer support, design systems, and production-ready React/Next.js frontend. Work is delivered through a fixed monthly retainer or clear fixed-scope projects.
Design that ships. Code that lasts. No agency overhead.
Core services
What we deliver
Fixed-scope projects
Defined projects with a clear brief, fixed price, and fixed deadline. Ideal for launches, redesigns, or specific product initiatives.
Design systems & UI foundations
Component libraries, tokens, and scalable UI structures so your product stays consistent as it grows.
Frontend implementation
Production-ready React and Next.js. We don’t stop at the design file — we build what needs to ship.
Service menu
Choose the outputs you need, then keep the queue moving.
Keep one senior team moving across brand, web, product UI, frontend, and launch assets.
What’s included in the work
- ✓ Product and marketing UI design
- ✓ Design systems and component libraries
- ✓ Interaction and responsive behavior
- ✓ Production-ready React/Next.js
- ✓ Source files and code ownership
- ✓ Direct collaboration with the founder
What we don’t do
We stay focused so quality stays high:
- – Brand strategy workshops at enterprise scale
- – Heavy motion/3D production
- – Full-stack backend engineering
- – 24/7 support desks
- – Large multi-team agency coordination
If you need those, we’ll tell you honestly and help you find the right partner.
Fit
Who this is for
Founders, product leads, and marketing teams who want senior output without agency layers or the inconsistency of rotating freelancers. If you value clarity, speed, and ownership, this model fits.
Choose path
Retainer or project?
Choose the retainer if you need ongoing design and frontend capacity. Choose a fixed-scope project if you have one clear initiative with a defined end. Not sure? Book a short call and we’ll recommend the better path.
